Candlelight: Christmas Carols on Strings

Candlelight: Christmas Carols on Strings at The Link Auditorium

The carols you have heard a hundred times may be about to sound new. Candlelight: Christmas Carols on Strings takes familiar holiday music and hands it to the strings, turning a seasonal tradition into something you can sit with and really hear. On December 19, 2026, that experience comes to The Link Auditorium in St. Louis. It is a concert built around one clear idea, and that clarity is part of the appeal.

Then there is the setting. This Candlelight presentation pairs its music with a candlelit, glowing look that supports the listening occasion. December can feel like a blur of errands, deadlines and noise. An evening devoted to carols on strings gives you a reason to step out of that rush and let a favorite season sound a little more graceful. You are not just hearing holiday music. You are giving yourself a quiet moment inside it.

The 8:45 PM start makes this a late-evening plan, the kind you can build a night around with a partner, a friend or family who loves Christmas music. Afterward, you will have something to talk about besides the to-do list: how well-loved melodies feel when strings carry them. Make December 19 your holiday pause in St. Louis, and reserve your seats for Candlelight: Christmas Carols on Strings.
